कारणस्य स्वबीजस्य नित्याभावात्पितामहः ।
अन्यः स दृश्यमानोपि भ्रमादन्यो न विद्यते ॥ ६७ ॥

kāraṇasya svabījasya nityābhāvātpitāmahaḥ |
anyaḥ sa dṛśyamānopi bhramādanyo na vidyate || 67 ||

The great grandfather of creation even Brahma himself, is the cause of production by means of the seeds of the supreme spirit which produced him; or else the visible form in which he appeared, was no more than a mere delusion.
